More than 75% of all vaccines have been administered in only ten countries, said the director general of WHO, saying that there is no diplomatic way to say, a small group of countries that manufactures and buys the majority of vaccines around the world controls the fate of the rest of the world. “
The COVAX program, led by the WHO and the Alliance of the Vaccine (GAVI), has delivered 72 million doses of vaccine to 125 countries and savings since February, which is barely sufficient for 1 % of their population, he said.
In Tunisia, the total number of coronavirus vaccinated citizens increased to 788,578 people on the 72nd day of the national vaccination campaign.
